Famous quotes containing the words boys and/or identified:
“This was the merriest old man that we had ever seen, and one of the best preserved. His style of conversation was coarse and plain enough to have suited Rabelais. He would have made a good Panurge. Or rather he was a sober Silenus, and we were the boys Chromis and Mnasilus, who listened to his story.... There was a strange mingling of past and present in his conversation, for he had lived under King George, and might have remembered when Napoleon and the moderns generally were born.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Societies need to have one illness which becomes identified with evil, and attaches blame to its victims.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
